Chapter 1646 - 813: The Meticulous Secretary

Chapter 1646: Chapter 813: The Meticulous Secretary

“Brother, thank you!”

“No need. Based on qualifications, you were meant to receive a pill anyway. Since I attended the meeting, I made sure to nominate you…”

In the office of the Sky-Mending Group’s chief leader, Chen Mobai sat in his chair, chatting on the phone with Ming Yuhua.

After the meeting concluded, in order to prevent a repeat of the commotion Chen Mobai caused at the end of last year, Ying Guanghua proposed directly publishing the distribution list publicly. Everyone agreed.

Thus, Ming Yuhua quickly found out his name was on the supplementary list for this batch of Golden Liquid Jade Pills; he didn’t even need to inquire. His superior personally explained the allocation details to him courteously.

Knowing Chen Mobai was the one who nominated him, even with their close friendship, Ming Yuhua called to express his gratitude.

“Besides you, I also nominated Yunyang Bing this time. When you two go to the finance department to collect your elixirs, let’s gather for a reunion…”

While chatting, Chen Mobai naturally mentioned another close brother.

Yunyang Bing was currently helping Hua Zijing arrange a Spirit Gathering Array. It should have been a simple task, but with the top-grade Spirit Stones gifted by Chen Mobai, the difficulty had unexpectedly increased significantly.

After all, Yunyang Bing had cultivated for nearly a hundred years and had only participated in a few projects involving top-grade Spirit Stones at the Celestial Canopy and Earthly Network Bureau. To independently oversee an array that required these stones? He had yet to do it even once.

This time, Chen Mobai undeniably presented him with a major challenge.

Nonetheless, Chen Mobai firmly believed in Yunyang Bing, for he was a genuine formation prodigy.

The slow progress now was merely due to Yunyang Bing treating the top-grade Spirit Stones as overly precious, cautiously handling every formation attempt out of fear of nicking or damaging them in the slightest.

“Haha, it’s true we haven’t met in a while. Coincidentally, my major project here is wrapping up. When we gather, I’ll share with you—it’s a devastating weapon being developed for the Immortal Sect’s war preparations…”

Despite having graduated for many years, Ming Yuhua still carried his original spirit. Even with Chen Mobai having formed his Nascent Soul, their conversation remained as congenial as when they were classmates at school.

“Shouldn’t such a project be confidential?”

Chen Mobai teased with a smiley reminder, but Ming Yuhua remained wholly indifferent.

“What’s there to fear? If something happens, it’s on you, Elder Pure Yang!”

At this point, Chen Mobai couldn’t help but laugh and scold a bit.

This time, upon returning to Wangwu Cave Heaven, he finalized his Daoist title.

This required filing at the Xianwu Hall.

Upon submission, the Xianwu Hall staff were visibly caught off guard.

After all, the name “Pure Yang” carried an undeniable weight everyone understood.

When Nangong Xuanyu learned of it, he was furious. But he no longer had the capital to oppose it and could only turn to Ying Guanghua.

However, having been admonished by the Leading Star Ancestor at Gathering-Immortals Peak, Ying Guanghua knew that a Nascent Soul cultivator with qualifications for Divinity Transformation indeed possessed the right to act willfully.

After careful deliberation, he authorized the Xianwu Hall to approve Chen Mobai’s Daoist name registration as “Pure Yang.”

Once the registration was approved, the Immortal Sect officially issued an announcement.

The name “Elder Pure Yang Chen Mobai” was proclaimed across the Thirty-Six Heavenly Caves and Seventy-Two Blessed Lands.

In the Immortal Sect, where no one lacked food or leisure, conversations over wine usually turned to gossip. Soon, the significance of “Pure Yang” became widely known!

Not long after, a small rumor began circulating online.

Supposedly, back when Yuanyang Ancestor had considered the Daoist name “Pure Yang,” the Divinity Transformation True Monarch of Dance Tool Dao Academy, Xuan Wu, spoke with him privately. After their conversation, Yuanyang Ancestor chose “Yuanyang” instead.

Now that Chen Mobai had claimed the name “Pure Yang,” it was clear his intention was to assert Dance Tool Dao Academy as the true heir of Pure Yang.

With this rumor taking off, Pure Yang Academy couldn’t sit idly. However, they clearly wouldn’t have the Immortal Sect issue a statement debunking it, which would only confirm the rumor.

Still, Nangong Xuanyu hired an emergency PR team to counter the rumor online.

They claimed Yuanyang Ancestor had always intended to use “Yuanyang” as his Daoist name, symbolizing “the Pure Yang lineage of Di Yuan Star.”

After Nangong Xuanyu’s crushing defeat, the battle over Pure Yang’s legitimacy was settled, with Dance Tool Dao Academy emerging victorious.

Yet Nangong Xuanyu, unwilling to concede, added the qualifier “Di Yuan Star’s Pure Yang lineage” in a last-ditch attempt to cling on.

Chen Mobai simply chuckled at this effort, knowing full well that once “Pure Yang” became synonymous with his name, anyone cultivating Pure Yang Scrolls would invariably recite his Daoist title.

As for Pure Yang Academy, the situation was even more dire.

Previously, searching “Pure Yang” online directly navigated to Pure Yang Academy’s official website. Now, it redirected to Chen Mobai’s personal profile.

Both associated with the name “Pure Yang,” all fortune and glory had been usurped by the ever-prominent Chen Mobai.

Reportedly, within Pure Yang Academy, one teacher even suggested renaming the institution to draw attention for the upcoming year’s admissions cycle. This proposal enraged Nangong Xuanyu, who promptly fired them.

Midway through his call with Ming Yuhua, Yunyang Bing’s call came through.

Over at the Celestial Canopy and Earthly Network Bureau, Yunyang Bing didn’t have established connections. It was only after the list was publicly announced that a superior informed him of the good news.

Yunyang Bing didn’t need explanations from his superior—he already knew it was thanks to his close brother, Chen Mobai, that he was granted one of the Golden Liquid Jade Pills.

“Brother, this was something I promised you, and I’ll definitely make good on it…”

Chen Mobai and Yunyang Bing spoke for an extended period, agreeing to reunite at Wangwu Cave Heaven once this batch of Golden Liquid Jade Pills was crafted with their third brother.

Right after hanging up, Zhuang Jialan handed Chen Mobai a cup of tea at his desk.

Chen Mobai took a sip and found the temperature just right, giving her an approving nod.

“Elder, I will remember this matter regarding the Golden Liquid Jade Pill for the rest of my life.”

Zhuang Jialan suppressed her joy and expressed heartfelt thanks. Although Chen Mobai had promised he’d secure a pill for her, seeing her name on the list and realizing her wish had truly come true was deeply thrilling.

“You’re my person; if I don’t support you, who will?”

Chen Mobai responded with a smile to his secretary. Having honed her skills in grassroots work for decades and possessing meticulous qualities, Zhuang Jialan carried out tasks with greater precision and thoroughness than Hua Zijing. Even the duo Shi Wanyu and her mother had been assigned to her care.

The key trait Chen Mobai valued was Zhuang Jialan’s keen attention to detail coupled with her discretion.

They discussed work arrangements for the Sky-Mending Group at length before heading together to the Kaiyuan Hall.

This visit focused largely on dealing with strategic policies between the Weapon Dancing Sect and Jumang lineage within the Three Great Halls.

Participants included influential members such as Wang Shuye from Dance Tool Dao Academy and Pei Qingshuang from Jumang lineage.

By the time Chen Mobai arrived, everyone was already present.

The meeting stretched all the way to the end of the business day.

While Wang Shuye wanted to continue, Chen Mobai disliked overtime and decisively set the action plan.

Only one focus: ensuring Chen Mobai’s swift promotion to the position of Deputy Hall Master of the Dharma Hall.

The sequence and strategy were already laid out by Wang Shuye. This year, Wen Lianshan would be transferred to the Military Department to replace a retiring general. Once Wen Lianshan was promoted, Chen Mobai could ascend as Director of the Enforcement Department.

Once Gongsun Jielu retired for Nascent Soul Formation, Chen Mobai could advance further to achieve the ultimate target.

If Narcissus didn’t voluntarily step down at that stage, it would be unwise to forcefully push Chen Mobai into the Three Great Hall Masters’ seat.

Chen Mobai wasn’t particularly concerned about this.

After all, regardless of his rank, the presence of two Divinity Transformation Ancestors within the Immortal Sect meant limitations would always exist. Being a hands-off manager suited him far better.

Additionally, thanks to Dao Academy’s consistent talent pipeline to the Three Great Halls, letting Wang Shuye’s team operate autonomously would prevent their abilities from going to waste.

After the meeting, Chen Mobai was headed to his courtyard in Wangwu Cave Heaven.

He was stopped by Pei Qingshuang.

She wanted to invite him to dinner to express gratitude for the Jumang lineage securing two Golden Liquid Jade Pills during the allocation meeting yesterday.

Pei Qingshuang knew well that if not for their bond with the Weapon Dancing Sect, neither Sky-Mending nor Kunpeng would afford her confidence—even as Peach Blossom Sage’s daughter, she’d likely only receive one pill as a symbol.

Chen Mobai thought to himself that it was a good opportunity to discuss matters related to the Qing Shuang Sword and Stat Fire with her, so he accepted the invitation.

Pei Qingshuang went ahead to book a venue while Chen Mobai called Shi Wanyu.

“Yes, there’s an important gathering tonight—I’ll be home late. You two go ahead and eat first.”

By this time, Zhuang Jialan had driven over in the car as well. Chen Mobai got in.

“This morning, I dropped off Miss Chen at the Forestry Administration for induction. Director Shen Xiuyun, part of Jumang lineage, was informed, and I greeted her. Just now Director Shen phoned to say they’ve arranged a dinner with Miss Chen’s office colleagues to help her integrate into the unit tonight…”

Zhuang Jialan gave updates while driving.

Chen Mobai asked about Chen Xiaohei’s workspace, and Zhuang Jialan answered seamlessly—even describing the specific desk setup she had coordinated with Shen Xiuyun.

She explained that Chen Xiaohei, weak since childhood, needed ample sunlight.

Chen Mobai was very satisfied with Zhuang Jialan’s meticulous arrangements.

Soon, they arrived at the private club Pei Qingshuang had booked.

Chen Mobai told Zhuang Jialan she didn’t need to wait for him as he’d be returning home on his own later.

Zhuang Jialan offered to pick up Chen Xiaohei instead, considering it was her first day at work and she might not be familiar with Wangwu Cave Heaven’s layout.

“Thank you for the trouble.”

Chen Mobai appreciated her initiative even more.

This is how a secretary should be. Comparing her attentiveness again to Hua Zijing, he found the latter lacking in sensitivity.

With this deliberation, Chen Mobai decided that once he was promoted at year’s end, Hua Zijing would stay behind to lead the Sky-Mending Group while Zhuang Jialan would accompany him to the Enforcement Department.
